Things I learned from Mom

1 My mother taught me to appreciate a job well done: "If you're going to kill each other, then do it outside, I just finished cleaning the house."

2 My mother taught me religion: "You better pray that will come out of the carpet."

3 My mother taught me time travel: "If you don't stop that, I'm going to knock you into the middle of next week."

4 My mother taught me argumentative logic: "Because I said so, that's why!"

5 My mother taught me foresight: "Make sure you wear clean underwear -- in case you're in an accident."

6 My mother taught me irony: "Keep laughing and I'll give you something to cry about."

7 My mother taught me about osmosis: "Shut your mouth and eat your supper."

8 My mother taught me about stamina: "You'll sit there until all that spinach is gone."

9 My mother taught me about weather: "It looks like a tornado hit your room."

10 My mother taught me about hypocrisy: "If I told you once, I told you a million times, don't exaggerate."

11 My mother taught me about the cycle of life: "I brought you into this world and I can just as easily take you out."

12 My mother taught me behavior modification: "Stop acting like your father."

13 My mother taught me envy: "There are millions of less fortunate children in the world who don't have wonderful parents like you do."

14 My mother taught me about surrealism: "If you fall down out of that tree house and kill yourself, don't come running and crying to me."

15 My mother taught me about delegating authority: "Go ask your father."
